Juneteenth

[Anonymous]

Liberals nationwide should take to the street and have fiery-but-mostly-peaceful riots to demand Trump stop defunding Juneteenth…. or something.

You give a fascinating view into the warped and delusional MAGA mind and its contorted pretzel logic.

No. That is the day the GOP Congress people like to visit Putin in Russia.

From 2018, and I will never forget this.

Once I was old enough to understand what “Independence Day” actually celebrated, I didn’t really celebrate it in any meaningful way. This year, I might try to plan something that celebrates the ideals of the United States, while doing something more community oriented for Juneteenth.

I am sure Stephen Miller remembers, and let's remember that Trump's brain is Swiss cheese. Who is really calling the shots?

I am surprised that Trump has not removed the holiday by executive order.

It's a stupid Biden unplanned holiday on a Thursday they should have made it a Friday. He probably forgot the day

I am in DC at a large and very diverse workplace and locals love it

Well, who doesn't love an extra paid day off?

Juneteenth was a big deal in DC long before it was a Federal holiday.

...You know Juneteenth is shorthand for June 19th, right? So Thursday is the actual date.

Washington's birthday has an actual date, too, but we celebrate it on the closest Friday or Monday.

Forget about the fat man in the WH. This is his last term.

Juneteenth needs to become a day of protest for full reparations for slavery.

OMG the conspiracy. Does this even make sense when you think it out? Come on. You can do this...

Right… because celebrating, or eh gads even acknowledging the end of slavery in the US means some other group is going to lose something and be discriminated against in the process.

Who knew the celebration of the end of slavery was DEI and reverse racism in steroids. I mean come on, you know you are scrapping the bottom of the barrel with that one… Right?

I can hear it now. “It’s Juneteenth Mama and they are a coming for our hot dogs and fireworks, grab the gun. Where’s ma bible, bar the doors, and don’t tread on me…. “

Calm down sons and daughters of Chucky and Tiffany, no one is coming for your fireworks and backyard bar-bee-que.
